Thanks Gene. I had been looking for that code. I didn't know how to and what to change. But @Flick referred to me here from <a href="http://forums.themeshaper.com/topic/full-posts-showing-up-on-homepage#post-11353." rel="nofollow">http://forums.themeshaper.com/topic/full-posts-showing-up-on-homepage#post-11353.</a> Thank again!

<p>Try this:</p>
<pre><code>function childtheme_content($content) {
if ( is_home () ) {
$content= &#39;excerpt&#39;;}
return $content;
}
add_filter(&#39;thematic_content&#39;, &#39;childtheme_content&#39;);</code></pre>

<p>As I understand it, Thematic has a custom filter called <code>thematic_content</code> (found in content-extensions.php) and assuming you're ok with conditional tags, you can choose whether to display the full post, the excerpt or nothing.</p>
<p>Chris explains it more fully in the link above.

<p>I want the opposite. How do I get the posts on my front page to only display excerpts?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance. I hope this question isn't redundant because I coudln't find an answer anywhere.
